Prospect: Volk GT-V RMC finish 19x8.5 +46 235/35/19


Yay or nay?!

Oh shit. I dont know. Thats a tough call.

Can you do a test fit? The Volks are hot but they will show off the tiny brakes.

I like the ones you have on better then the ones you want but its always like that.

Everytime you watch that cheaters show you see the guy cheating on his hot girl/wife with a dog but I guess everyone needs a change of scenery even if its not a better change!

Its true, prob will never be completely happy with any set of wheels. I am getting the volks this sunday.. Thinking of eventually getting them painted gold (maybe)

The C2 are super hard to find but the Volks would be an upgrade. Gold is a bit flashy but like everyone is saying...i would leave the GT-V's the way they are, its their trademark color
